At N. D. Mount Orthopedic Care, our orthopedic oncologists have expertise in diagnosing and treating malignant musculoskeletal diseases. Orthopedic oncologists perform a variety of procedures to remove tumors, reconstruct the bones, if necessary, and help patients restore mobility and/or relieve symptoms. Bone cancer and sarcoma may require a combination of treatments and therapies. An orthopedic oncologist may use targeted procedures to remove tumors or reconstruct bone. These treatments and therapies are also designed to help restore limb mobility, enhance function and manage pain. Amputation is the surgical removal of all or part of an extremity or limb. This surgical procedure may be used to remove cancerous bone tumors from the arm or leg; however, doctors typically consider other options first, such as limb-salvage surgery, which attempts to save the affected limb.
